1978-2008
My friend Patrick Saunders has died. We met in 1996 and bonded over weird music and strange flights of the imagination. I had not seen him since 2001, when he took me to a strange gay bar. A series of drag queens performed, and at the end of the show a drag Yoda - man dressed as Star Wars character - came out on stage and sang. It was hilarious, bizarre and fun, and so are most of my memories involving Patrick. He was one of the few really original thinkers I've ever known, and he was also a caring and supportive friend.

Wow. He was a caring and creative guy. Sad.

That is a bummer. I've often wondered what became of him, and I'm sad that this is what eventually did.
